After months of work and the immense patience that has been bestowed upon us by all, it has arrived! the latest hotfix release. The update is inbound imminently and your client should update soon!

All the work you’ve been currently seeing through our weekly blogs is on it's way as well so make sure to keep those hawk eyes on us for more updates.

In this release you can enjoy the new upgradeable turret system in Multiplayer, and a vastly improved (and less difficult) beginning to the Singleplayer game. Amongst many other fixes and optimisations which we've included further down.

New missile turret upgrade levels:

New gun turret upgrade levels:

This also includes progressive damage visuals for each model:

Another big change is the games load times, which have been reduced drastically. So now there’s no need to put the kettle on for a hot drink before diving in.. unless you really Love a good tea of coffee. (we actually think it's essential to the survival experience).

Important: THIS IS A HOT FIX UPDATE - ALL OFFICIAL SERVERS WILL BE WIPED Please be sure to update your own custom servers.

Full change list is as follows:

Upgradable Turrets! - The Laser Turret, Auto Turret and Missile Turret can now be levelled up similarly to the Eden Kit, improving their stats and visuals!

Upgrading the Eden Kit now changes the Eden Kit model.

New explosions and sound effects for structure destruction. Different utilities explode in different ways depending on their purpose.

New surface impact effects for every combination of surface type and weapon!

New fracture/destruction effects for each type of mineable rock.

Tweaks to standard Intro sequence wave difficulty. Removed C21 waves if you arrive after dawn. Please note the intro sequence is heavily work-in-progress and will change considerably in future builds!

The game is still in development, so things will change with each update; features added, bugs fixed, variables balanced etc. If you are happy with the current features, go for it- we'd love to hear your feedback!

The current world (island) is one and a half kilometers of area to explore. We are currently working on an 8 kilometer map for the multiplayer Alpha. Multiple islands (maps) are something we would like to deliver in the future, but one big open world is our current plan for the Alpha :)
